Fresh Hop Cinema: Craft Beer. Movies. Life.

Beery Christmas to all and to all a beer night! This Christmas we're very excited to bring you reviews of beers from around the world. The first, from our very own corner is called "12 Haze of Christmas." It's New England-inspired IPA from Crooked Lane Brewing out of Auburn, CA. The second is an imperial stout from Oslo, Norway and a brewery called Cervisiam. The beer itself? "Chocolate Salty Christmas Balls." Does it make you think of Santa's musk after a night of delivering presents? Cause that's what we thought of. Also, our review of the final installment into the Star Wars canon with "The Rise of Skywalker."
